摘要: Introduction Matrix metalloproteinase-21 (MMP-21) is a member of the MMP family, which overexpressed in some solid tumors and thought to enhance tumor invasion metastasis ability. The aim present study examine MMP-21 expression human colorectal cancer normal tissue using microarray technique determine its association with clinicopathological characteristics prognostic value.
